Seven of the nine lady pilots featured in "A Hunger for the Sky", along with the author, were able to attend a gathering and book signing on May 23, 2009 during the Swift Nationals Fly-in at McMinn County Airport, Tennessee. The book signing was hosted by the Swift Museum Foundation, Inc. and the City of Etowah to celebrate the pilots' accomplishments and also to honor Evelyn Bryan Johnson in her centennial year.
A Hunger for the Sky is a collection of women pilot biographies, authored by Sparky Barnes Sargent and published by DGA Enterprises, Inc. The book features the personal stories of nine women who are irresistibly drawn to the sky. They include a professional skywriter, airline first officer, DC-3 captain, Guinness World Record holder, and owners/operators of a gliderport and an aerobatic school. Each chapter is devoted to one woman; the reader will have the rare opportunity to learn who these women were as young girls, follow them into adulthood, learn about their attraction to aviation, and discover the skyways they have chosen.
